2 wounded in South Side shooting

A 14-year-old boy and a companion were shot Thursday night by three men who approached them on a South Side street, police said.

At about 11:15 p.m., officers responded to shots fired in the 7000 block of South Indiana Avenue, said Chicago Police News Affairs Officer Hector Alfaro.

There a teen was found with two gunshot wounds to his leg, Alfaro said, and was taken to Comer Children's Hospital in "stable" condition.

Another male victim, described as in his 20s, suffered a graze wound to his leg, Alfaro said.

Three men approached the victims and fired in their direction before fleeing the scene, Alfaro said. The shooter was described as wearing a brown baseball cap and jacket, Alfaro said. He is approximately 250 pounds. Witnesses said he jumped out of a silver Chevy and began firing.

All three of the suspects are believed to be in their 20s, he said. No one is in custody for the shooting. Police are investigating.
